....that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in... Isaiah 40:22
It is a GRAND DESIGN alright....
"The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has captured a vivid image of the central part of a grand design spiral galaxy called NGC 5364.
NGC 5364 is a grand design spiral galaxy, a descriptive name deserved by only one-tenth of spirals.
“While all spirals have a structure that is broadly similar, there is quite a bit of variation amongst individual galaxies,” the Hubble astronomers said.
“Some have patchy, oddly-shaped arms, some have bars of stars cutting through their core, some are colossal and radiant, and others are dim and diminutive.”
“Grand designs like NGC 5364 are in many ways the archetype of a spiral galaxy.”
“They are characterized by their prominent, well-defined arms, which circle outwards from a clear core.”
